A Pilot Study for the Neuroprotective Effect of Gongjin-dan on Transient Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion-Induced Ischemic Rat Brain
Figure 4
Effect of gongjin-dan on the number of apoptotic cells after MCAo. TUNEL staining was used to identify apoptotic cells. (a) Apoptotic cells were identified by immunofluorescence Cy3 (red). TUNEL positive cells were counted using Meta-Morph program (b, d). TUNEL positive cells show the quantitative analysis data (e). The number of TUNEL positive cells was significantly decreased in the drug treated group compared to the control group. Data are expressed as mean ± SD, *, Scale bars denote, 50 μm.
